No capsizes of my own this weekend.. and only caught one traditional blow over on film, happening just behind my boat.... (I just may have to post it )

The best of last weekend IMO also wasn't my own.. and happened around midnight.. (the weather was just to nice so we stayed out till 2am) About 11:30pm it was perfect solo/single trap weather.. and well.. Out he went on the wire.. and the freshly installed trap handle came loose sending him into the lake.. Lucky it was in a nice big puff knocking the boat over..and somehow he didn't loose his mainsheet/tiller extension.. So all was well in the end.. but I will have to get one of those on film sometime..

Ok... Someone explain this pitchpole to me.. This is the first ever time I have dumped unintentionally during a race. I dump all the time playing around so I have a good idea of what not to do while racing.... I was gybing for the pressure, and the gate... I can only assume it hit me a few seconds before I was expecting it, and was much stronger than I anticipated.. But still.. I have become fairly steady at passing the tiller and see no evidence of a bobble or anything as I pass it.. I guess I just lost that feel right at the moment I needed it the most.
